JAMES SUCKLING: "This is so muscular yet elegant, with super-intense tannins that make the finish leaner but so long. The character of blackberry and lead pencil is intense. Goes on for minutes. 80% merlot and 20% cabernet franc."

FALSTAFF: "Dunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Schwarze Kirschfrucht, zart nach Lakritze, Brombeerkonfit, zart nach Orangenzesten. Saftig, mineralisch, frische rote Kirschen, seidige Tannine, finessenreich, saftige Mitte, zarte Extraktsüße im Abgang, elegant und anhaftend, frisch, voll Energie, ein delikater Speisenbegleiter."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Red, and white flowers, black raspberries, licorice, espresso, black cherries, and crushed rocks pop in the perfume. On the palate, the wine manages to provide a wealth of ripe, sensuous, creamy black cherries, plums, spice, and dark chocolate with energy, length, and lift from the mid-palate, all the way through to the fruit, and chocolate finish. The wine blends 80% Merlot with 20% Cabernet Franc. Drink from 2028-2050."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "Another beautiful wine from Sisseck and his team, the 2023 Rocheyron wafts from the glass with aromas of dark berries and plums mingled with notions of licorice and violets. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and seamless, it's polished and complete, with an enveloping core of fruit framed by supple, powdery tannins."

WEINWISSER: "80 % Merlot, 20 % Cabernet Franc. Opulentes Bouquet, blaubeerige Konturen, berauschendes Veilchenparfüm, Orangenzeste und heller Tabak. Am geradlinigen Gaumen mit seidiger Textur, engmaschigem Tanninkorsett, satter Extraktfülle, stützender Rasse und straff ausgerichtetem Körper. Im konzentrierten langen Finale mit blauen Beeren, tiefschürfender Terroirwürze und körnigem Extrakt, Potenzialwertung."

JANCIS ROBINSON: "Elegant, floral, complex. Suave fruit and texture. Dense and fleshy on the mid palate, the tannins finely honed. Length on the finish accentuated but not overpowered by the limestone terroir. Classy wine with some ageing potential. Drink 2030 – 2045"
